"In our testing we see excellent noise results from the HIS HD 7770 iCooler, making it whisper quiet in idle and barely audible under load - a great improvement over the reference design. This actually makes it the quietest HD 7770 card we have tested so far. Good job HIS!" TechPowerUp - Highly Recommended Award
"Having finished all the tests it's now quite easy to see that the latest Radeon HD 7770 iCooler 1GB GHz edition by HIS is in fact perhaps the single graphics card around the £100 price range which I’d choose if i couldn't go any higher." The Last Resort - Bronze Award
"Where I was most impressed was actually the performance of the cooler. When I reviewed the Sapphire HD 7770 Vapor-X a little while back, I had a feeling it had a way overpowered cooler for what it was actually cooling, and after reviewing the HIS 7770 iCooler, I’m going to have to agree. There really wan’t much of a reason other than aesthetics to go with a dual cooler solution considering the 7770 iCooler with a single fan is capable of getting around the same temperatures as the dual fan Sapphire HD 7770 Vapor-X even when overclocked. Noise wasn’t too bad either as the iCooler was extremely quiet and would be a great choice for those looking to drop this card into a HTPC or any other application where silence isn’t essential, but would be preferred." Custom PC Review - Awesome Award "Silver"
"With regards to overclocking, the HIS HD7770 1GB 1GHz Edition reached a very good overclock, at 145MHz past the 1GHz core clock speed. Very good for a low priced card. In terms of the results, the easily achievable overclock achieved on average around 8fps more in the game frame rates." HardwareLOOK - Silver Award
"HIS did a nice job with this product edition card as all variables are right in terms of perf for money - perf per watt, but also noise and heat levels. If you like to tweak a little, then there's plenty of headroom left. Grab an overclock utility of your choice, add a little extra voltage then that's where things get interesting. You might be able to get a cool 1200 MHz out of the GPU core. It was very similar to the reference product in terms of overclocking. But in combo with the custom cooler you'll keep the temps way more acceptable while you add another 15% to 20% performance." Guru3D "Great Value"
"If you are on a very tight budget and you are looking for the best price/performance ratio around the USD100 mark then the Radeon HD 7770 iCooler 1GB GHz Edition by HIS is the way to go." NiKKtech "Golden Award"
"This card a good solution for those who play casually and do not want to run at high resolutions ...although still is able to handle a very large part of the most current games. It is also a good solution for those who are building a HTPC..." Adrenline "Silver Product"
"The HIS 7770 is a unique card in that it really doesn’t have much in the way of competition from Nvidia except for older generations. The HIS 7770 performs very well in most instances and can offer a decent upgrade option for those on a budget. It’s not all about the budget for the card though, this card runs cool and quiet thanks to the cooler and fan, but it also requires only one external power connection, meaning it’s not a very power hungry card. Chances are if you’ve got an older system you won’t need to upgrade your power supply in order to get these latest generation video card. It truly is just a video card upgrade with the HIS 7770, it offers an excellent upgrade path from the last gen or older cards really without having to spend a lot of cash." Testfreaks "Recommended Product"
"While the HIS HD 7770 can hold its own in popular games, its strength lies in its new architecture, with its improved processing power and multimedia features. The improved processing power was really evident in the Heaven benchmark with its heavy tessellation." Christ Centered Gamer
"The iCooler HIS has put on the card keep it quiet and cool even while under load, so its a great card for an HTPC and playing some games on with reduced settings.. If you are a serious gamer and love your eye candy and 1080p resolutions, you have a good choice in the HIS HD 7770 with the iCooler." Overclockers.com "Approved"
"What makes the HIS HD 7770 offering more attractive, though, is the cooler which really is near silent. Against the HD 6800 series, the HIS iCooler version clearly wins out in that area." TweakTown
"The HIS HD 7770 iCooler 1GB GDDR5 Video Card Video has great bang-for-the-buck since it performs well in games, can be used for word or a HTPC setup. It's also capable of CrossFire which will improve gaming performance substantially. If you don't want to break the bank on a Video Card, this is a perfect option." 3D GameMan "Gameman's Pick"
"The HIS card does maintain lower temperatures and power consumption. It also performs respectably in games that feature more tessellation" PureOverclock "Good Hardware"
